Let’s Get to It!

For anyone that missed it I made a free tutorial for you all. It will show you how to post process / edit your Northern Lights photos from start to finish in Lightroom & Photoshop.

Fresh out of some amazing hikes in the Pacific Northwest, winter is quickly approaching which means awesome snowshoeing and travels abroad.

Recently we spent some time in the Enchantments of Washington State. This place is unreal! I’d highly suggest it to anyone that wants to escape reality for a week. We spent 5 days out here exploring, hiking and taking photos!

The Shot

This is one of my favorite spots to shoot on the Olympic Peninsula. You can camp here, or even better hike up the beach for days without seeing a soul. The Wild Coast as they call it has is very remote once you get out there a day or two. It also has some really nice easy to access locations for day trippers.

Using 100+ Star Photography Photoshop Actions & Luminosity Channels you can quickly and easily get great results, and learn the adjustments,tools & techniques used to get them. I use these actions to edit each one of my star photos & can’t wait for you to try them as well!

Answers to Frequently Asked Questions

Question: Do I need to have any Photoshop experience to effectively use these actions?

Answer: No, you can be a beginner opening Photoshop for the first time and get great results with these actions. You can also be an intermediate or expert Photoshop user and get just as much out of the actions.

I’ve designed them allowing beginners to get great results with the click of a button, intermediate users can tweak and adjust the different user input settings to get desired results of their own, and experts can use the included luminosity channels actions to adjust the settings even more for complete over all control of their photos.

Not only will you get great results, you’ll also learn the tricks I use to get these results within Photoshop!

Question: Which version of Photoshop is required for the actions?

Answer: You can use and install these actions on Photoshop CS3 & newer, including Photoshop Creative Cloud. These actions will not work with Photoshop Elements.

Question: Why would I want to purchase actions?

Answer: When You edit / post process star photos, there are certain tasks which are done on a consistent basis, such as increase the contrast or brightness of just the Milky Way or stars, selectively add color, contrast, glow, or saturation, apply noise reduction, and many other techniques.

Although these tasks are easy to say, they take 5-10 different selections or clicks of a button within Photoshop to complete. This can really destroy your artistic process.

Using these Photoshop actions you can perform these same tasks with just one click of a button and get great results every time. This allows the you to concentrate more on your artistic workflow and less on the actual labor of performing these tasks. Keep in mind, you can adjust each action to suit your exact needs if required!

Answer: I recorded my Star Photography Post Processing Video Tutorial in early 2014 & still use the exact same skill sets taught within the video.

As I continued to improve my workflow with the use of Photoshop Channels and Actions it was necessary to provide my Star Photography Photoshop Actions & Bonus Video Tutorial which teaches my most up to date methods of post processing. This is an additive video.

Each of these videos can be watched alone, or combined for a unique, powerful and easy to learn workflow!

By mastering the skill sets taught in both video tutorials you will be able to see the exact skills I use to edit photos of the Night Sky. Each set of tutorials are unique and don’t provide overlapping information!

Over all the Star Photography Post Processing Video Tutorials teach very technical Photoshop skill sets which are imperative to know, while the Star Photography Photoshop Actions & Bonus Video Tutorial are not as technical, but do provide a very easy to implement workflow for any level of photographer.
